摘要

Rich scattering environments, characterized by numerous reflective and diffractive structures, play a crucial role in the propagation of THz signals. In industrial settings such as server rooms and production lines, metallic surfaces and small machine components contribute to complex multipath channels, introducing both opportunities and challenges for communication and sensing applications. The presence of specular and diffuse scattering generates diverse signal paths, enhancing spatial diversity while also causing interference and fading. Channel characterization in such environments requires sophisticated measurement techniques, including multidimensional wideband channel sounding and ray-tracing simulations. In this chapter, several measurements and models are presented for the characterization of propagation in industrial scenarios, showing that properly leveraging multipath propagation can enhance reliability and efficiency in industrial THz networks.
